Favicon Generator from Image

Runs fully in your browser via the Canvas API — nothing is uploaded.
What is the Favicon Generator?
The Favicon Generator creates a complete set of website icon files from a single uploaded image, entirely in your browser. It produces the common sizes browsers and devices expect: 16×16 and 32×32 PNGs for browser tabs and bookmarks, a 180×180 PNG for Apple touch icons on iOS home screens, and a favicon.ico file for broad legacy compatibility. All the icons are generated using the Canvas API and packaged into a downloadable zip file, so you can drop them straight into your website's public folder without needing any design software or online upload service.
How to use it
Upload a source image — a square image works best so the icons aren't stretched. Click 'Generate favicons' to create the 16×16, 32×32, and 180×180 PNG versions along with a favicon.ico file. Review the previews, then click 'Download all as .zip' to get every file bundled together, ready to place in your site's root or public directory alongside the appropriate <link> tags in your HTML head.
Frequently asked questions
What image should I upload?
A square image with a simple, recognizable design works best, since favicons are shown very small in browser tabs.
What's included in the zip file?
favicon-16x16.png, favicon-32x32.png, apple-touch-icon-180x180.png, and a favicon.ico file.
Do I need to add anything to my site's code?
Yes, you'll typically add <link> tags referencing these files in your HTML <head> so browsers and devices pick them up.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No, every icon is generated locally in your browser using the Canvas API.
